Thorough examination of the literature revealed no comprehensive reviews detailing the experiences of South Korean–U.S. adoptees as transnationally adopted persons. To address this need, multiple databases, keywords/keyword combinations, and fugitive literature were used. Data from the review were coded, categorized, and analyzed, with five themes emerging: (1) intrusive interactions, (2) boundary management, (3) discrimination and exclusion, (4) difficulties in identity development, and (5) ethnic exploration. These themes seem to fall along a developmental path from childhood through young adulthood. Understanding these experiences may be useful for formulating policy, structuring adoption services and clinical practice, and research design.Keywords:: Transracial adoptionintercountry adoptionSouth Korean adoptionintrusive interactionsboundary managementyouth development
